1
00:00:01,010 --> 00:00:08,540
Creating motion using key frames and adjusting the motion path is the most important aspect within after

2
00:00:08,540 --> 00:00:09,740
effects.

3
00:00:09,740 --> 00:00:15,980
If you conquer these two concepts you will be halfway in using After Effects the rest actually is very

4
00:00:15,980 --> 00:00:17,240
easy.

5
00:00:17,240 --> 00:00:24,080
Here we are going to create a simple and fun animation just unknown about key frames and motion serious

6
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:25,730
things would come later.

7
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:32,340
Please have fun play an experiment you will acquire the skills faster than you could imagine.

8
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,910
So let's start now.

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:41,130
The first thing we want to do is to import some graphics within after effects so we can start creating

10
00:00:41,130 --> 00:00:47,810
some amazing motion if you like or amazing animations to import any file in After Effects.

11
00:00:47,830 --> 00:00:55,450
You just come to the project panel over here and the easiest ways to right click go to import an import.

12
00:00:55,450 --> 00:01:02,860
You can choose file and go to wherever you downloaded the resources from the pleasers lectures please

13
00:01:02,890 --> 00:01:04,300
choose Sky 1.

14
00:01:04,330 --> 00:01:12,580
This is an illustrator file and in input as please change to composition retain layer sizes and keep

15
00:01:12,700 --> 00:01:21,300
the two boxes here unchecked and you click on input now after effects imported the illustrator file

16
00:01:21,870 --> 00:01:24,720
and in this folder here you can see the layers.

17
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:31,420
We have an airplane and we have a background and also we have a composition that has been created.

18
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,790
This is a composition that has the exercise as an illustrator.

19
00:01:35,790 --> 00:01:42,210
The way I created it now a composition is just a big container where you put all your graphics and the

20
00:01:42,210 --> 00:01:43,600
motion and so on.

21
00:01:43,620 --> 00:01:47,810
This is what will become your video later on to open this composition.

22
00:01:47,810 --> 00:01:49,300
Just double click on it.

23
00:01:50,220 --> 00:01:55,100
Now you can see in the timeline over here you have two layers.

24
00:01:55,260 --> 00:01:56,180
The airplane.

25
00:01:56,190 --> 00:01:59,130
This is the red airplane and you have the background.

26
00:01:59,130 --> 00:02:02,840
And over on the right here you have the timeline itself.

27
00:02:02,850 --> 00:02:04,680
This is the timeline indicator.

28
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:09,280
You click and move it in time now for the background.

29
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,340
You don't want to click and move it around.

30
00:02:11,430 --> 00:02:13,110
So we are going to lock it.

31
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,630
So come to the lock here.

32
00:02:14,630 --> 00:02:15,870
The second box.

33
00:02:15,870 --> 00:02:16,500
Click on it.

34
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,890
You have locked has come to the airplane and this is what you want to any minute.

35
00:02:20,900 --> 00:02:21,800
Now make it.

36
00:02:21,830 --> 00:02:24,240
You do a couple of loops and exit.

37
00:02:24,530 --> 00:02:26,370
If you two are down on this arrow here.

38
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,230
You will not see that you have transform it turned on again.

39
00:02:30,290 --> 00:02:34,190
These are the transform properties that you can use to create animation.

40
00:02:34,310 --> 00:02:36,080
So you notice you can move the anchor point.

41
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,200
This is the dot in the middle here.

42
00:02:38,210 --> 00:02:40,670
You can move it up and down if you like to.

43
00:02:40,730 --> 00:02:42,780
I will undo control Z.

44
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,330
You have the position you can take it up and down and left and right.

45
00:02:47,330 --> 00:02:52,790
You know that already I am sure you have the scared you can make it bigger or smaller and you have the

46
00:02:52,790 --> 00:02:56,420
rotation pretty easy and you have the opacity.

47
00:02:56,420 --> 00:02:59,770
Make it transparent or totally non-transparent.

48
00:02:59,860 --> 00:03:04,870
We want to focus on animating the position here but I don't want to see all these properties.

49
00:03:04,900 --> 00:03:07,500
I want to see only position to do that.

50
00:03:07,540 --> 00:03:15,020
Our press P has the shortcut for the position property to be now we are all set to start any meeting

51
00:03:15,020 --> 00:03:17,570
the position I will do that in the next video.
